Benda is very gifted, and is the only person I trust with my neck. She has resolved issues that have enabled me to up my game tremendously, and this has helped give me freedom I have not had in decades. Benda is the top of her league. She does an amazing job isolating and treating problem areas and where required equips you with exercises to support/enhance/maintain your adjustments and move you toward optimum health.
Your very first visit to our clinic will be a discovery process to determine the source of your health issues and concerns. Her examination will determine any abnormal alignment and motion patterns you have and how these could be negatively affecting your central and peripheral nervous systems and organ function - and importantly give Dr. Benda insights into what could be causing issues with your health.
Are you struggling with back pain? Whether it is your upper, middle, or lower back, it is likely that you will experience some form of back pain in your life. In fact, it is estimated that nearly 32 million Canadians are experiencing back pain at this moment, and that approximately 80% of the population will experience some form of back pain in their lifetime.

I would give Power On Family Chiropractic 10 or more stars if I could! Dr. Heidi Benda is absolutely exceptional and offers a care, attention to detail and expertise that far surpasses any other Chiropractor that I have ever worked with. She is incredibly passionate about her work and her patients, and is such a positive and encouraging force to be around. After only a couple of sessions I noticed strong improvements and decreased pain in my neck and shoulder unlike I had experienced with other practitioners, and I believe that this is due to the skill and precision of Dr. Benda's work.

I have experienced profound realignment throughout my initial year with Dr. Benda.
My commitment to moving through stuck patterns held in the body lead me to regain strength.
I have experienced four healing intensities that I can recall over this year through her chiropractic care, which brought deeper awareness to my own evolution of healing.
Pain taught me that undoing patterns in the body that compensate from past physical and emotional injuries, is not always easy when rebuilding and strengthening back into original alignment; However, staying consistent with sessions when feeling vulnerable

I've been a long term patient of Dr. Benda's. Why? When I went to see her the first time, I was in so much pain that I was starting to walk with a limp. Forget running, which was my passion for years. Even cycling for more than 40 minutes became difficult with pain in my shoulders and neck. Originally I would come and see the Dr. when the pain was so bad I couldn't move my foot from the gas pedal to the brake without excrutiating pain. The pain relief didn't last, until Dr. Benda begged me to do it her way - have regular chiropractic to realign a mis-aligned spine which is where the pain was coming

Dr. Benda cares SO deeply for each one of her patients, she really pours her heart and soul into caring for each person holistically. It is important to note that she focuses on corrective care rather than just pain management (fixing the problem vs just making your pain go away for a bit), hence the focus on the neck as mentioned in other reviews.
While it was initially confusing that she would keep talking about my neck when my pain was in my low back, after knowing and receiving care from Dr. Benda for years, I have gained a greater understanding of the spine. The spinal system operates in

I also had a negative experience with Dr. Benda similar to another posting. I decided to terminate treatment and invoke the 30 Day Satisfaction Guarantee to get my money back.
I don't fault her training, just her style didn't work for me. I felt my concerns weren't being addressed and she focused on one area she felt was paramount; my neck. She added to my stress instead of relieving it.
She has an assembly line of patients lined up so she can spend as little a 2 minutes on each one. She doesn't want 'verbal communication' during adjustments. She claims to be an empath.
She spent more time explaining

I am a long time patient of Dr. Benda and I am grateful and for the care that I have received from her over the years. Dr. Benda is knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging; she cares about the whole person, not just my spine.
In general, most people seek chiropractic care from one of two places: (a) looking for a quick fix; or, (b) committed to a journey towards health. While a single adjustment can relieve pain, more often than not, healthy living requires multiple chiropractic adjustments, and, a commitment to health in the other aspects of life (i.e. sleep, fitness, posture, etc). Dr. Benda is

About four months after a serious car accident, I was really dragging and not improving. I had no pep or energy, no appetite and could only stand for about two minutes at a time before having to sit or lie down. I had lost 15lbs and was very thin and dangerously wobbly too from lack of balance. I was referred to chiropractor Dr. Heidi Benda by a friend and am so glad I went to see her. Basically she gave me my life back because previous massage and physiotherapy treatments did not help me. After a few months of treatments I felt like eating again, got up to a healthy weight, was able to cook for

It's been a little over 2 months now since I started treatments with Heidi. Prior to coming under her care, I was getting frequent headaches and lots of tension and aches in my lower neck. The headaches, for the most part, have diminished in frequency and intensity. My lower neck pain has also abated quite significantly and I seem to have a lightness in my step that I haven't had in a long time.
Heidi is a caring, deeply thoughtful practitioner. I always get the sense when I lay down on the table that my personal health is paramount on her agenda.
I am looking forward to her ongoing care, and
